Summary

The study aims to investigate the effect of different Russian current parameters on maximum voluntary isometric contraction of the quadriceps muscle among University of Sharjah students.

Conditions

  • Quality of Life

Interventions

DEVICE

Russian Current

The patient will be placed in sitting position, hip at 90-degree flexion, knee at 60°, the upper body supported by the backrest, cross belt support the trunk and cross belt support the pelvis. The dynamometer rotating axis will be aligned with knee joint axis and the resistance lever arm will place in the distal leg above the malleolus. The angle of the joints adjustment considering the joint's range of motion and the device's user's manual, any movement other than the range of motion determined by the mechanical limit will be not allowed All electrical induced contraction will last 4 second each, with characteristics of 75 bursts; 4 second time on, 400 μs pulse width and 10 second time off. The greatest electrically induced torque by the quadriceps muscle at the maximum current output from the stimulator will be recorded for each subject to be used in data analysis. The same procedure will be done on the 3rd week and after 6th week.
